F-15EX is a huge waste of money. Horribly overpriced.


Overpriced would be the F-35. It makes absolutely NO sense that the Navy would purchase and deploy single engine aircraft from a carrier. If I'm a naval aviator I'm sure as hell gonna want a little redundancy built into the part of the aircraft that's gonna bring me home over tens of thousands of square miles of open water!
